When to Use
- Kicking off new persona journeys or refreshing existing ones.
- Preparing workshops with stakeholders across marketing, product, CS, and sales.
- Auditing journey artifacts for consistency and completeness.
Framework

- Stage Definition – align on lifecycle stages, success metrics, and ownership.
- Touchpoint Mapping – capture channels, emotions, expectations, and supporting systems.
- Gap Identification – document friction points, root causes, and opportunities.
- Action Linking – connect gaps to initiatives, success metrics, and measurement plans.
Templates
- Journey storyboard canvas (stage, touchpoint, emotion, KPI, owner).
- Persona one-pager with goals, pains, and preferred channels.
- Gap log sheet (issue, impact, evidence, owner, next step).
Tips
- Keep sessions interactive with pre-read data and live polling.
- Include frontline voices (support, sales, CSMs) for real-world context.
- Version control maps so improvements are traceable over time.
